yeah dude, unfortunately games still havent found a way for a quality back to gain yards without adding, bs speed,agility or power. The truth is the most productive backs in the nfl are usually the ones who can follow their blockers but that doesnt translate to video games very well.

It could translate to this game if they would tone down the broken tackles. Blockers do create holes in this game. I get some nice runs inside and then cutting off of the fullback lead. The problem is that if most people can't score or move the ball soon after they begin playing, they don't like the game. If they handled the settings the right way, this would not be a problem. Legend should favor the defense more. The defensive AI and pursuit should be a lot better. Broken tackles toned down. Human controlled players should not be punished, sliders should be equal to computer controlled players. Make people have to think and execute better on offense. The legendary NFL teams were about defense.

yeah defense sucks on this game, i play with near legend slider and the cpu just sucks. The only way for them to gain yards in on big plays. They always get stuffed or gain 20+ yards on a play. I have the cpu running maxed out and they still run right into the defenders they just break 10 tackles before i get then out of bounds. Same stats end up cpu 15 rushing attempts for 70 yards aith a 55yards long rush and 28brken tackles human runner 15 carries for 170 yards with an 80 yrd run and 7 brken tackles. Its really one sided. I out rush them every game and break less than half as many tackles. They just run poorly and defend poorly.
